I understand that every trip participant must be in possession of a current, valid passport (or other US issued photo ID as applicable).
I acknowledge that travel on a short-term mission trip carries an array of risks due to various reasons. Grace City Church and its pastors, directors, employees and agents assume no liability for injury, damage, loss, accident, delay, or irregularity in connection with the services of any airplane, motor coach, or any other conveyance used in carrying out this tour, or for the acts or defaults, financial or otherwise, of any company or person engaged in conveying the passenger or in carrying out the arrangement of the mission. Grace City Church shall not be responsible and does not assume liability for breach of contract or any intentional or careless actions or omission on the part of suppliers, or any person or entity rendering any other services included in the mission, which result in any loss, damage, delay, inconvenience, accident, or injury. Grace City Church and its representatives, directors, employees, staff and agents accept no responsibility for any damage, delay, or cancellation due to sickness, pilferage, labor disputes, mechanical or construction difficulties, war, quarantine or diseases, social or labor unrest, government restraints, terrorism, weather, acts of God, or any other cause beyond their control. The traveler is hereby warned of such risks. In view of statutory or contractual limitation that may apply to personal injury or property losses, the purchase of personal or baggage insurance is strongly recommended. Such insurance is the sole responsibility of the tour participant. Grace City Church shall not be liable for any loss or damage to person or baggage caused by suppliers. Your retention of tickets, reservations or bookings after issuance shall constitute consent to the above.
Grace City Church will endeavor to take reasonable precautions to avoid risks. However, there can be no guarantee that they will be successful in doing so. Accordingly, by signing this agreement, which will become a binding contract when accepted by Grace City Church, you are voluntarily and expressly agreeing to assume all such risks and hold Grace City Church harmless for any injury or loss that may occur as a result of such risks, and to release them from any and all liability, claims or causes of action that may arise from the occurrence of such risks.
By signing this agreement, you are certifying that you do not have any mental, physical or other condition or disability that would create a hazard for yourself or other passengers. Grace City Church has the right to decline to accept or to decline to retain any person as a member of any mission trip should such person’s health, actions, or general deportment impede the operation of the mission or the rights or welfare or enjoyment of other participants. Grace City Church reserves the right to refuse or revoke travel to anyone who is determined to be, in the sole judgment of Grace City Church, incapable of group travel. If this determination is made while the tour is in progress, Grace City Church reserves the right to send any passenger home early. In such cases, there will be no refund for any unused services.
Grace City Church reserves the right to cancel or change itineraries, or substitute services without notice.
By selecting Agree below, you are stating that you desire to visit foreign countries with Grace City Mission Trip Leaders and participate in a mission trip organized by Grace City Church. I release and forever discharge my team leaders, my church, and any other ministry/organization involved and each of their respective members, employees, staff, officers, directors and representatives from any and all claims for any and all injuries, illnesses, losses or damages I might have on or in any way relating to such mission trip, including without limitation, those relating to me leaving the United States of America and visiting foreign countries, including my stay in any such foreign country and my trip to and from any such country.
I am eighteen (18) years of age or older, and this RELEASE is binding on me and my executor, administrators, and heirs.
I give Grace City Church and its representative(s) with me on any such trip authority to request and authorize medical and/or hospital treatment for my benefit in the event of any injury or sickness sustained by me while on such mission trip, including, without limitation, while traveling to and from any foreign/domestic country. I agree to pay for all such treatment and to reimburse Grace City Church for all costs and expenses incurred with respect to such treatment.
I have fully read and understand the above RELEASE. I affirm that I am a follower of Christ.
